Thought Leadership
Since his inauguration on 20 January 2025, President Donald J. Trump has signed dozens of executive orders and presidential memoranda on topics including, but not limited to, energy and the environment; immigration; international trade; foreign policy; diversity, equity and inclusion; transforming the civil service and federal government; and technology.
President Donald Trump issued a flurry of executive orders (EOs) in his first hours and days in office. The numerous EOs cover a range of topics, many of which impact environmental regulation and related areas. While many of President Trump’s EOs will be—and already are—facing litigation challenges, and others will require congressional approval prior to full implementation, the EOs nevertheless signal the intention and direction of the Trump administration in the environmental law realm and beyond.
As the Trump administration transitioned into power, the White House issued over 25 executive orders in the first days in office addressing a variety of topics including many focused on employment laws.
